Re: Problem cross compiling modular X

Hi,

I've changed the ebuild (libX11-1.0.3.ebuild) in the following lines:

IUSE="ipv6 malloc0returnsnull"
CONFIGURE_OPTIONS="$(use_enable ipv6 malloc0returnsnull)"

and emerged with:

USE="ipv6 -malloc0returnsnull" emerge xorg-x11

But I'm still in trouble (can't find libXau.so, besides I'm sure that
it is there ...)

/usr/lib/gcc/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/4.1.1/../../../../arm-none-linux-gnueabi/bin/ld:
cannot find -lXau

gentoo-arm # find . -iname "libXau*"

./usr/lib/libXau.so.6.0.0
./usr/lib/libXau.so.6
./usr/lib/libXau.a
./usr/lib/libXau.la
./usr/lib/libXau.so

Could someone help-me, please?

Good luck Ryan,
Leonardo.
